nobody should buy this at launch

there are no good games right now and if no one buys it then nintendo will cut the price in half in 6 months

Why would the developers release games for a hardware that's not selling?---GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC

Because many of the games are already in development and it's unlikely that any game near completion would be cannibalized at this point. The new Rayman, for example, looks amazing. But yeah, I agree with you that boycotting a console is hardly the best way to boost developer interest.---HighOnPhazon on Diablo 3: "The future of video games guys, pay to buy it, play on developers terms, then pay to win!"

Pretty sure the 3DS is actually selling unlike the Vita which is getting outsold by pretty much every other consoles and handheld---"Not really just shows how stupid everyone in that universe is. I know instead of just snipping these terrorists lets risk an apocalypse durp"
